FFXII has updates?To answer your question, new content means paying a programming team to create said content. Thus they have to continue to charge people for this content or a monthly fee like an mmo does. If they are unable to charge people enough money to offset the cost of creating the additional content/updates then it isn't profitable to do so and thus the "longevity" is sustained. It all comes down to money.
